What Do I Do If I Swallow a Fish Bone?

What to Do If You Swallow a Fish Bone

Over the weekend, my guy and I were enjoying a salmon fillet with soy glaze that we'd made together for dinner, when he got a small pin bone stuck in his throat. I told him I had the perfect solution for his problem, and it wasn't the water he was pounding. Instead, I brought him a soft piece of bread.

When a fish bone gets lodged in your passageways, the best remedy, I've found, is a small chunk of bread — it surrounds the bone, helping to move it down. Of course, if you have serious, persistent pain, seek medical help. You don't, after all, want to wind to wake up weeks later, like a Taiwanese woman did, with a pointed object piercing the side of your neck!

HELP ! OMG I ate a flounder last night for tea. Of course it was nice but uh oooohhh I swallowed a bone andnow it is stuck in my throat. I have tried balls of rice , bread and have drunken alot of water but this still doesn't work ! What can I do otherthan going to a doctor . Please HELP ! This is soo sore and irratating my throat, it is the worst pain I have EVER felt in my life. :(

This happened to me when I was a kid and my mom tried rice and bread to dislodge it but it didn't work. So she gave me some of my brother's leftover birthday cake...I must have eaten 1/3 of the cake before the bone moved.
My brother was SOOOOO pissed that I ate his cake! And it was delicious!! Hehehe

I tend to eat a lot of fish [like the rest of my family ... I guess it's a Bangladeshi thing], and my mom always insists on eating loads of plain white rice to get the bone unstuck. It's probably because cooked white rice is readily available in our house. :-P
